  1. having the product exposed to your market would only increase the visibility and merchandising capacity, in my opinion.
  2. nice of the bills not to throw the fans a bone and pick up the tix at 34 cents on the dollar. i dont care what their rationale is, the mgmt sucks..
  3. i like the fact that it is december and the game does have playoff implications, no matter how faint. as we all suffered thru the past decade and more, at least the game has a purpose unlike most december games. i look forward to it. the season is flying by and i enjoy football.
  4. "we are committed to bringing a championship to buffalo and wny"... russ brandon
  5. i could not agree with you more! the loyalty of the bills fans has been abused by littman , brandon, overdorf and co for years. it really does suck, but nationally i think lots "get it" , as witnessed by PFT 's rosenthauls comments last week when he made his pick, "bills fans deserve more". the perception of the franchise's "money grubbing" is now a reality . it is no reflection on the fans and obviously until ownership changes, it will continue.
  6. i know, the tebow hate is all because of his devout faith. i am not a bible thumper, but do get pi$$ed when tebow is mocked because of it. i wonder if tebow were a practicing muslim ,if would he be treated as he is now,or would "tolerance" be in play.
  7. why so negative?? so snarly, i think the poster is hoping , like the majority of us, that we find a way to win.
  8. i am fearing the dolphins on sunday and hoping we go down and get back on track with a W.then we can atone for the home loss to the jets the following week. we get that one, all is not lost and the december run will be fun! but , i agree, does not seem like a good time to play the jets next week. they again, have more time to prepare.
  9. absolutely! i agree, i like tradition and that is not remotely close to any stadium i would prefer. but, as we know, it is all about the "pop culture" NFL.
  10. didnt it just happen on sunday?
  11. i am surprised that this is the first we have heard of it. great gesture by both morrison and the bills.
  12. i saw that on BB.com.. anybody know anything about him??
  13. i kinda feel the same way, why mess with it now? the biggest game in what seems like forever and they are screwing with karma, mojo, whatever.
  14. at least it is not walt coleman.i said in earlier thread i was hoping it would not be hoculi or coleman, but nothing we can do about it except hope the game is not determined by a crucial call. that is a huge leap of faith when it comes to hoculi though. he is as egomaniacal as they come.
  15. was he the guy that officiated the pittsburgh -seattle super bowl? if there was ever a reason to believe in a "fix", that game sure would qualify.
  16. i agree with you. i always wanna know what crew we are getting, whether it is walt coleman, who we all know and "love", to the "show", ed hoculi. i am hoping beyond hope we get mike carey. i have never felt he had a bad game , whether it is us, or whomever. i also give credence to the "big market" theory. so we shall see.
  17. not for me! i am a traditionalist i hate what domes have done to the ambiance of all sports. updating the ralph works for me. i really do not feel the area needs to make a "statement".
  18. that is for sure PTR!.. i have been saying that. citifield and yankee stadium, we deserve our slice of the taxpayer , state pie!
  19. well, there are always going to be losers, quite frankly. as i have said in a similar thread,we, in WNY, might be deemed "losers" based on the fact that ny state funded 80 mill to the ny mets to assist in funding citifield . i heard absolutely no outcry in WNY when that happened because most were not aware, OR affected by it. you have valid points, most i would agree with in the real world, but in the case of the BILLS and securing taxpayer funds, or whatever resources that are necessary , i say it has to be done. i will not bore anyone with the numerous mistakes the region has made over the years, but losing the bills would be the death knell.
  20. ok, i kinda grasp your premise, but respectfully disagree with it. the bills are a "mindset", a way of life, autumn and early winter sunday's are built around bills games. i do not see that happening in other facets of which you referenced i e "favorite orchestra", the bills, (rightly or wrongly) permeate a great many of the populace's souls, hence the need to spend the necessary resources to keep them.
  21. i am not the smartest guy in the room, im not sure what you are talking about.
  22. i do not live in ny state anymore, but if i did my feelings would not change, i have said it before, why not see a tangible result from all the tax revenue? all the drivel about roads, bridges, etc, does not matter. the politcos continually pi$$ away tax dollars , why not on something that actually contributes to the "quality of life" in buffalo? all the hand wringing "taxpayer watchdogs" really get loud when it comes to sports. sure it doesnt add up that taxpayers have to pony up for ralph, but the alternative is unacceptable!common sense should prevail, not a bunch of self-righteous rhetoric. just do it and shut up! i am sure if the bills leave, people will be flocking to see the "new roads and bridges".
  23. i am torn between lonnie johnson or ronnie harmon, but in reality, hands down, darryl talley!
